One of my favorite quotes,

"It's funny, how day by day,

Nothing changes,

But when we look back,

Everything's different."

Because it is so right on.

It doesn't seem like much,

But every day we make changes,

That could affect our entire lives.

Dad and Stevie's mom have started

Planning their wedding.

Still,

To this day--

I know that should be Stevie and I.

They don't say anything to me,

And I think they know.

They realize that's how I see it.

They seem so happy.

So I can't complain.

I'm definitely not one,

To mess with others happiness.

I just wish I could find my own.

With that thought,

I bite my lip,

And fall back on to,

My large, soft bed.

A lump forms,

In the back of my throat.

The lump of guilt,

Mixed with sadness.

I found my happiness.

And she's gone.

I know it's been over a year,

But it hasn't gotten any easier.

Some days things seem,

Somewhat alright.

But more often than not,

I have nights like tonight.

Where my stomach is twisting,

And I'm fighting tears back.

Being here,

Brings back too many memories.

Especially when it's dark nights,

And I think of everything.

From the late nights of us talking for hours,

To playing,

To listening to music,

Just...everything.

In the darkness of

My room,

A light appears from my dresser.

For a split second,

I was confused.

Because my phone hasn't went off,

In months.

I pick it up,

And there's a text from Lacey.

I forgot she had my number,

But since we became partners
